    What makes chocolate sandwich cookies so good?

    ย 
    Chocolate sandwich cookies are the perfect marriage of creamy fudgy chocolate wedged between two crispy chocolate cookies.

    I love that this chocolate cookie recipe can be made with no added sugar.

    Have you tried my recipe for Sugar Free Hot Cocoa Cookies?

    Those cocoa flavored cookies are soft in the center and have marshmallows added to them.
    Both this recipe for sandwich cookies and that recipe for hot cocoa cookies are delicious cookie recipes that have no added sugar in them!

    Make your cookies more accurately sized by using a cookie scoop. You can find a selection of cookie scoops here.

    Ingredients you need to make Homemade Sandwich Cookies.

    • Flour. All purpose flour was used to make my cookies. You can use an alternative flour that measures like all purpose flour, taking into consideration other ingredients needed to use that alternative (ie almond flour).
    • Unsweetened Cocoa Powder. Used to give the cookies that chocolaty look and flavor.
    • Baking Soda. The leavening agent used for the cookies.
    • Butter. Your butter should be at room temperature. If you are using an unsalted butter, add ยฝ teaspoon of salt to the dry ingredients.
    • Sugar Alternative. Use a granular sugar alternative that measures like sugar and that can also be baked with.
    • Eggs. Your eggs should be at room temperature.
    • Vanilla Extract. Adds a nice balance to the flavor of these cookies.
    • For the filling- Sugar Free Powdered Sugar, Unsweetened Cocoa Powder, Butter (at room temperature), and vanilla extract.

    How to make Sugar Free Chocolate Sandwich Cookies.

    ย 
    Prep: 15 minutes.
    Bake Time: 15 minutes.
    Yield: 24 cookies.

    1. Preheat your oven to 325 and prep two rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper or a baking mat.
    2. In a medium bowl, use a whisk to blend together the flour, unsweetened cocoa, and baking soda.
    3. Next, in a mixing bowl, beat together the butter and sugar alternative until creamy and fluffy (this can take a few minutes). Then add the eggs and vanilla, mixing until incorporated and creamy. You may need to scrape down the sides of the mixing bowl as needed.
    4. Add the dry ingredients from the first bowl to the mixing bowl and mix until just combined.
    5. Use a medium cookie scoop to scoop out the dough on to the prepared baking sheets. Make sure that the cookies are a couple of inches apart from one another as they will spread while baking.
    6. Bake the cookies for 12-15 minutes or until edges appear to be set and the centers are slightly crinkled across the top. Let the cookies cool completely on the baking sheets at room temperature.
    7. To make the filling, simple beat together the ingredients until creamy. You may need to make adjustments in the ingredients as needed to get your desired consistency. Then use a piping bag or zip top bag with a cut corner to apply the filling to the insides of half of the cookies. Place the inside of a second cookie over or facing the filling to make a sandwich.
    8. Lastly, refrigerate the cookies until the filling is fully set.

    Sugar Free Chocolate Sandwich Cookies, a delicious dessert or snack recipe featuring crisp chocolate cookies with a creamy chocolate filling.

    Tips for making the best sandwich cookies.

    Because these are sandwich cookies, it is a good idea to have the cookies similar in size and shape. Using a cookie scoop to scoop out similar sized cookies is one way to make these look more uniform.
    You also can also use a round cookie cutter to make the cookies have a more similar shape as well.

    More helpful tips for you.

    1. We are filling the sandwich cookies with a basic sugar free chocolate buttercream. To make a white, 'non-chocolate' filling, omit the cocoa and cut the butter (two tbsp to ยผ cup) as needed for consistency.
    2. For a minty flavored filling, use mint extract instead of vanilla extract.
    3. The cookies need to be crisp enough to hold the moisture from the filling. For this reason, when you take the cookies out of the oven, allow them to cool on the baking sheet before transferring them.
    4. When applying the filling to the cookies, apply to filling to about a quarter inch of the edges of the cookies. This will help to prevent the filling from spilling out of the cookie sandwiches.

    How to store homemade sandwich cookies.

    Because the filling in these cookies has butter in it, it is best to store these cookies in an airtight container in your refrigerator. If properly stored, they should keep for up to five days or longer.
